during life. She went down to the grave ripe

THE House, in its efforts to saddle on
tax payers the sum of $4,000 unlaw
fully spent by the attorney general and
his assistants in Pan-Electric business,
practically caused the defeat of the De-
fciency Appropriation bill, for of course
the Senate wouldn't vote for palpsble
job like that. That so many items had
to be inserted in the bill is the fault of
the Democratic administration in every
direction. Appropriations for the cur
rent year were larger than ever before,
yet they were not enough, despite the
fact that the Democratic party, previous
to taking possessions Of the Govern
ment, declared that an era of retrench-
ment was at hand, which should be in
pleasing contrast with the extravagant
expenditure by Republican office-hold'
ers. To talk of this kind, henceforth,
items and total amount of the Dsficien-
cies bill will be sufficient answer.-N Y
